Often times, your air conditioning unit will last anywhere from 10-20 years depending on multiple factors including how much maintenance has been performed, the make and quality of the unit, as well as environmental issues such as location, how much usage your AC unit has seen, etc.
Twice a year is our recommended maintenance duration for your entire HVAC system, which includes both your air conditioning unit and your furnace. We recommend replacing your air filter based on the type of furnace you have. Some units use the 1″ filters which should ideally be swapped out monthly, while other units use the 4″ tall box filters which should be replaced every 3-4 months on average.
Typically, you can expect our technician to be at your home or office for about an hour. During this time, we run through a long checklist of items to ensure your cooling system is performing up to its standards. If we find something that is broken, we will discuss the issue with you, along with the solution to the problem.
This all depends. The cost can vary widely based on the type of AC unit you have, the part needing to be replaced, as well as the labor involved to properly install the part. Contact us for a free quote!
It is normal for your unit to take 30 seconds to a minute or so to kick on sometimes, but other times this can signal a problem somewhere in your HVAC. It could be anything from your thermostat not communicating properly, to an actual issue with your air conditioning unit itself.
Yes we do! We are proud to offer professional and honest service with every AC unit we install. We’ve built our business with the premise that every customer deserves fair and honest service backed by 20+ years of industry experience here in Idaho.
Not required. However, we highly suggest consulting with us first to ensure you are picking out the right unit for your home. We always educate our customers on the difference between one unit and another as there are many variables such as efficiency ratings, warranty, energy consumption, performance and more.
We are not some huge company, but instead a family owned small business. We love treating our customers with the “old school” service that is often hard to find in larger companies.
